Treat Outer Thigh Fat - CoolSculpting in London & Kingston, Surrey

Stubborn outer thigh fat, often referred to as "saddlebags", can be particularly difficult to reduce, even with a healthy diet and regular exercise. Many individuals find that fat in this area is resistant to traditional weight-loss methods, leading to frustration when trying to achieve a more contoured, sculpted lower body.

At It’s Me & You Clinic in Kingston upon Thames, we specialise in non-surgical fat reduction treatments, offering effective solutions to help you achieve your body goals. Our clinic serves clients across London, Surrey, and surrounding areas, providing advanced aesthetic treatments designed to target and eliminate stubborn fat without surgery or downtime.

One of the most effective treatments for outer thigh fat is CoolSculpting, a MHRA-approved, non-invasive fat freezing technology that permanently reduces fat cells in targeted areas. By using controlled cooling, CoolSculpting effectively eliminates fat cells without harming the surrounding skin or tissues, giving you a smoother and more sculpted silhouette.

If you're looking to slim and sculpt your outer thighs, book a consultation at It’s Me & You Clinic today. Our team of experts, led by Dr. Laura Geige, will create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your body goals.

What is Outer Thigh Fat?

Outer thigh fat, commonly referred to as "saddlebags", is a common concern for individuals looking to achieve a more toned and contoured lower body. This type of stubborn fat accumulates on the outer thighs, creating a bulging or uneven appearance that can make it difficult to achieve a smooth silhouette.

For many, outer thigh fat is particularly resistant to diet and exercise, as the body naturally stores fat in certain areas due to genetics, hormones, and lifestyle factors. Even with a dedicated fitness routine and a healthy diet, spot reduction is not possible, making it challenging to specifically target the outer thighs.

What Causes Outer Thigh Fat?

Several factors contribute to fat storage in the outer thighs, making it a common concern for many people. Understanding the root causes can help determine the most effective way to reduce it.

Genetics & Body Type

Some individuals are naturally predisposed to storing fat in the thigh area, especially those with a pear-shaped body. Genetic factors influence fat distribution, meaning that even with a controlled diet and regular exercise, some people may still retain excess outer thigh fat.

Hormonal Influence

Oestrogen (the primary female hormone) plays a significant role in fat storage around the thighs, hips, and buttocks. Women, particularly during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause, may experience an increase in thigh fat accumulation due to hormonal fluctuations. This makes fat loss in this area more challenging, as oestrogen encourages the body to store fat for reproductive health.

Lifestyle Factors

A sedentary lifestyle, poor dietary habits, and lack of muscle tone contribute significantly to thigh fat accumulation. Consuming excess calories, refined sugars, and unhealthy fats can lead to overall weight gain, with the thighs being a common storage area for excess fat. Additionally, lack of lower body strength training can lead to weaker muscle tone, causing the thighs to appear less firm and defined.

Aging & Metabolism

As we age, our metabolism slows down, making it harder for the body to burn fat efficiently. This often results in increased fat retention in stubborn areas like the thighs. Loss of muscle mass over time can also contribute to the appearance of excess thigh fat, as a lower muscle-to-fat ratio affects overall body composition.

How to Get Rid of Outer Thigh Fat?

Reducing outer thigh fat can be challenging, as this area tends to be one of the most stubborn fat deposits on the body. While diet and exercise are essential for overall health and weight management, they often provide limited results for spot reduction. Fortunately, there are several options available to slim and contour the outer thighs, ranging from non-invasive fat reduction treatments to surgical procedures.

Diet & Exercise (Limited Effectiveness for Spot Reduction)

A balanced diet and regular exercise can help with overall weight loss, but they don’t specifically target outer thigh fat. While strength training exercises like squats, lunges, and leg presses can help tone and define the thigh muscles, they don’t necessarily reduce localised fat in the area. Since genetics and hormones play a significant role in fat storage, some individuals may find that even with an active lifestyle, their outer thighs remain unchanged.

Non-Surgical Fat Reduction Treatments (Effective & Non-Invasive Solutions)

For those looking for a targeted solution to slim the thighs without surgery, non-invasive body contouring treatments like CoolSculpting offer a highly effective alternative:
CoolSculpting (Cryolipolysis) for Outer Thigh Fat

• CoolSculpting is an MHRA-approved fat freezing treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat cells permanently.

• It is specifically designed to contour and sculpt areas like the outer thighs, love handles, and abdomen.

• Unlike traditional weight loss, which only shrinks fat cells, CoolSculpting destroys them, ensuring long-term fat reduction.

• The treatment requires no downtime, no surgery, and no needles, making it a safe and effective option for those struggling with outer thigh fat.

• RF energy is used to tighten and firm the skin, which can be beneficial for individuals who have mild skin laxity along with stubborn fat.

• It works well in combination with CoolSculpting, especially for those concerned about skin elasticity post-fat reduction.

• This non-invasive procedure uses ultrasound waves to break down fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

• It provides an alternative to CoolSculpting for individuals who prefer a different fat reduction method.

Surgical Options (Liposuction – An Invasive Alternative)

For individuals looking for a more drastic reduction in thigh fat, liposuction is a surgical option. However, liposuction:

• Requires anesthesia and downtime.
• Carries risks like scarring, infection, and uneven fat removal.
• Involves a longer recovery period compared to non-surgical treatments like CoolSculpting.
